Currently the tutorial does not contain a LICENSE. This means all content can't be changed, used and published by others without explicit allowance by the original authors. This is even true for all people that contributed so far.
Because I believe that this is not the intention of the original authors a LICENSE file should be added to the repository.
Parts of the tutorial use content from other tutorials. One of them is my Django tutorial django-marcador. It is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. In my opinion there are two things that need to be changed to meet the requirements of the license:
- The way credit is given does not match the terms of the CC-BY-SA 4.0 license. it says that a user must "provide the name of the creator and attribution parties, a copyright notice, a license notice, a disclaimer notice, and a link to the material".
- Because the license is a "ShareAlike" license the Django Girls tutorial must also be licensed under a CC-BY-SA 4.0 license.
License and proper credits could look like this:
